Hello Gaius,

I came here originally from your TikTok. I admit firistly that I was hasty to judge you as simply another of the Third-Positionist grifters, as I think that call was wrong on my part. What you've defined in this work is a special and honestly cherished writing-down of thoughts that I personally had for a long time but never saw anyone bring up the way you do. I am naturally opposed myself to various forms of bigotry, like antisemitism, misogyny, racism, homophobia, whatever else comes to mind, et cetera, but, as you pointed out with Racialism- I am also against both extremes in the sectors of love, hate and morality. This goes for the sexual, and often the religious. I have also long sympathised with syndicalism and the Italian doctrine of fascism. I chiefly appreciate your championing of nuance in this work, and the part in which you urge the reassessment of the foundation of politics - something which is sorely needed on the left, right, up and down equally. Very interested in seeing more of your works in the future, and if you like, to discuss the details of your movement and work in private.

Not to argue semantics, but wish you would define racialism, because I have no idea what it means. I have a general idea of what it means, but would like to understand without needing to look it up. Otherwise, I agree with most of the article. 👍

"Racialism is not merely racism as an action, nor institutional mechanisms built on racist intent. Racialism is the ideological worldview from which these things stem, it is the belief in inherent biological races at all."

Wait Gaius would you consider the movement to be closer to Red, or to Brown? (Even as we are in the third position)
